After having issues with not being able to find my blog on popular mastodon servers, I finally found webfinger.net reported a 403 error, despite my webfinger endpoint working fine from my home PC.
After reporting this to my host they told me it was blocked as an "evil_bot", and whitelisted webfinger.net for me, of course that doesn't help with reaching it from popular activitypub servers.
I'm guessing with activitypub still being fairly new they aren't used to supporting it. What can I tell them to do in order to stop blocking activitypub servers?
